Lead
Lead is a common Starfield resource that can be used in manufacturing several outpost structures in Starfield.
Lead is a heavy metal resource that is essential as a base building material. However, it is also an extremely heavy resource, so extraction and transportation of this resource will be critical to creating a large outpost.
Despite being incredibly toxic when consumed, lead’s biggest usage is in anti-radiation materials and barriers. It is likely this factor which makes it a suitable building material, particularly on planets with no atmosphere or magnetosphere to protect you from the nearby star’s radiation.

Starfield Lead is a Starfield resource which can be used in a number of crafting recipes. Lead is classed as Inorganic. The rarity of the resource determines how difficult it is to find Lead, and also affects the overall credit value of the resource when you are looking to buy or sell stockpiles of Lead.
Resources like Lead can be found in a number of locations and planets throughout Starfield. However, the fastest method to gather resources is to bulk purchase them from a Starfield resource vendor like Midtown Minerals or the Mining League.
